Read on: We round up the Sunday newspaper share tips

Mail on Sunday: Midas

Victrex makes a type of plastic that is sold globally and used in products as wide-ranging as dentures, aircraft, mobile phones and oil rigs.

Based in Thornton Cleveleys, Lancashire, Victrex was initially part of ICI, a former bellwether of the British economy that was sold to Dutch conglomerate Akzo Nobel in 2008.

Over the past 20 years, the company has expanded substantially but it continues to focus on PEEK, an extremely durable, heat-resistant plastic still considered one of the highest-performing materials in the world.

Around 98 per cent of its products are exported to the continent, America and Asia and the company expects to increase sales substantially to Asia and Latin America as economic growth is stronger and the pace of innovation is faster.

Victrex is not immune to the economic environment so its profits plunged in 2009, recovered sharply the following year and held steady at just over £94million in 2011 and 2012.

Brokers expect a similar figure for the year to this September, with steady gains in 2014 and beyond. The dividend is forecast at 39p for 2013, rising to 42p next year.

The shares are 1549p and should increase steadily over the next five years, a rewarding stock for the patient investor.

The Sunday Telegraph: Questor

The Questor column takes a look at BP shares this week. Garry White says that the clock is ticking ahead of BPs civil trial regarding its Mexico oil spill in the US later this month and this mean there are still woes ahead for the oil group.

However, future growth is good - there are prospects for Arctic exploration as well as four new projects expect to start pumping oil by the end of next year.

BPs plans to increase cash flow by 50 per cent by 2014 may be damaged by the trail later this month. But Questor keeps it as a hold.

Burberry's strategy is unlikely to change and while investors might be concerned about its slowdown it is a stable stock.

After the recent market rally cautious investors have been looking for a reason to sell. But its shares are trading on a current year earnings multiple of 20, keeping it inline with its peers, Questor keeps it as a hold.

The Sunday Times: Inside the City

Anglo American's shares have lost nearly a quarter of their value since Cynthia Carroll took the helm in 2007. So sadly, on her last day this Friday she will not be missed by many, writes Danny Fortson.

Her successor, Mark Cutifani, doesn't take over until April and AA is attempting to keep investors at bay by increasing its annual payout.

The company is also hoping to break with the past by shutting down ventures in South Africa - the controversial plan has paid off as it revealed its platinum division lost $225 due to soaring costs, strikes and weak demand.

Anglo is a risky bet, dividend or not, concludes Fortson.

Harriet Green, Thomas Cook's chief executive, revealed her turnaround plan for the company in July. Since then its share price has rocketed by more than 80 per cent this year, closing at 88p on Friday.

But there's still more work to be done, Green is in the middle of strategic review which will decide if any parts of Thomas Cook should be sold. And challenges remain - the gross margin has improved but the City is still looking at the net margin, currently just 1.6 per cent.

Plus Thomas Cook is under the same pressure as all of its rivals - the travel industry is being slapped by rising fuel costs and a weak consumer economy. But, so far the outlook is promising for Thomas Cook, concludes Fortson.
